Recs if you like Sea of Ruin (Sea of Ruin, #1)...

Unfortunately, I do love a poly romance.

MMF, FFM, MMM, FFF, MMFM, MMFF, monsters, aliens, whoever wants to join in on the hot & sexy fun…

Enthusiastically accepting recs!

I got my swim trunks & my flippy floppies 🩳🩴

I was listening to the lonely island and the next thing you know, this list happened.

this list contains a variety of books that take place on a variety of boats, ships and vessels

as always, taking any and all suggestions

self care romance books in all forms: mutual, solo, IRL, video call, phone, overhearing, walking in on, public space, etc etc.

if you hate the word ‘masturbation’, try: flicking the bean, jerking off, finger banging, rub one out, beat the meat, dj the vj, wanking, jerkin the gherkin, fapping; we can go on for days. whatever you call it, i just hope you reach climax ⛰️ toys encouraged but a hand (or two or three or-) will do just fine.

🫵 𝑔𝑜 𝒻𝓊𝒸𝓀 𝓎𝑜𝓊𝓇𝓈𝑒𝓁𝒻! 🫵 😇 gladly 😇

Romantasy books to read to escape reality that AREN’T ACOTAR and Fourth Wing.

these books include back-door related action (think plugs, DP, regular anal, rimming, eating out, dildos, some w/ somnophilia). includes MF / MM / RH / MMF

perhaps the gr(ass) really is greener on the other side 🥵

but the jury is out on the actions of their brat tamer🧎‍♂️‍➡️are we in an elevator cause these MCs are ready to push all the buttons for a crumb of punishment in return 🙂‍↕️ the way they run their mouth you would think they were in a marathon 🏃

being told to watch your mouth is a challenge, not a threat—don’t forget that 😌

Romance reads across genres with childfree characters/storylines. This shows up in different ways. Its either a given, not a part of the plot or a conclusion. That said, it doesn't necessarily mean there aren't any child characters in the story. If you need details I'll dig into my memory to verify. I'm open to recs, but I want to be really clear about the nature of their childfree status, so any explanation you can provide would be great.

Gays on boats. That's it, that's the list. (Open to recs! 🩵)

Nothing better than a quick standalone romance between something long and serious 😏 In other words, if you’re already committed to six series but still need more excitement in your life 🤭

If you simply prefer to spend every night with another magical being that’s perfectly fine too 🤭💖

Romantasy standalones from YA to Dark Romance

Pirate stories, grand adventures and quests for treasure and more

Open waters, treasures, it's a pirates life

Look, we all need some pirate romances in our lives sometimes. Here’s a list of romances where at least one character sails the high seas. As always, open to recs.

High seas, hidden treasure, questionable life choices, and a lot of dramatic shouting. Dive in if you’re ready for adventure, danger, and a little bit of glorious chaos.

All things throuple!

MMF FFM MMM FFF.

For those who love, when there is plenty of love to go around! Because let's face it, isn't the best ending to a love triangle a throuple?

Specifically poly romance not RH

Always keeping an eye out for new additions so this list is a WIP

Feel free to comment anything you think I missed!

Romances where the FMC has been victim of SA and is now healing and learning how to trust again or is assaulted 🍇 in the book itself and the after is part of the plot as well.

(Added some content to the recs in the comments. Please do your own research into the potential triggers as well before diving into any of these as some are quite dark.)

List of books that @thebookbaron talks about and recommends on her YouTube channel.

Romance books with polyamorous relationships (usually reverse harem) where the FMC has multiple partners, who are also partners with each other.

Books in fantasy, romance and everything in between that have queer rep in their main cast and supporting characters. Always welcome to more recommendations!

Pirate fantasy books

Books with ocean mysticism, pirates, mermaids, sirens, and every sea creature in between.

Covering a range of genres and sub-genres. Only adding the first book of each series.
